Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups of high-quality dark or milk chocolate (for the best flavor, consider premium chocolate options)
- 1/2 cup of white chocolate or confectionery melts
- Food coloring pens or melted white chocolate for Morse code symbols
- Edible gold or silver dust (optional, for decoration)
- Assorted toppings like crushed nuts, dried fruit, or sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Break the dark or milk chocolate into small pieces and melt them slowly using a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly to about 1/4-inch thickness.
- Melt the white chocolate separately and transfer to a piping bag or plastic zip-top bag with the tip cut off.
- Create Morse code patterns and parasite-inspired symbols on the tempered chocolate using the white chocolate or food coloring pens.
- You can also use edible gold or silver dust for an extra touch of sophistication.
- Allow the chocolate to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place it in the fridge for 15 minutes for faster setting.
- Once the chocolate is firm, break it into irregular pieces to resemble natural bark textures.
Notes
- Store the Chocolate Bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Keep away from direct sunlight and humidity.
- For longer storage, refrigerate and ensure it is well wrapped to prevent moisture absorption.
- Get creative with Morse code symbols and toppings to personalize your chocolate bark.
